About the Weather in Provence

Provence enjoys hot, sunny summers and mild winters, similar to that of other Mediterranean areas and the Côte d'Azur.

Located in southeastern France, Provence extends from the left bank of the lower Rhône to the west and the Italian border to the east, bordered by the Mediterranean to the south. There are various micro-climates throughout the region, and winds are a key feature of the weather here, particularly the mistral - a cold, dry wind which, especially in winter, blows down the Rhône Valley, often reaching windspeeds of over 100km/hour wreaking havoc to anything in its path.
